Practicing painting in Photoshop... This was pretty quick, like about three hours maybe? I totally cheated on the hands and just left the stock showing through. I suck at hands.

Again with my work, it's vibe not accuracy here, I always like the slightly scratchy painted look, rather than the smooth realistic tones.

Love the composition and tones in this - absolutely gorgeous. The textures in the bit of background n the top right makes my mouth water <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/d/d…" width="15" height="18" alt=":drool:" title="Drool" />

My only critique really is that the body and the face don't mesh at all. The face, and hair to some extent, are painted to a high degree of realism and the rest is looser. This could work if the transition was more gradual I think, but as it is, it's a bit mask like. I know it's SO easy to get caught up in the face (I do it a lot and then have to remove detail D: ) but after nagging from my lecturers I'm getting the hang of working more evenly through something <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" />

I'd really like to see what you could do with a face in the same style as the torso - because I am absolutely loving the way her flesh folds as she twists.

But overall, I love the colour palette, the colour balance and composition is spot on, and it's a great piece <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/n/n…" width="35" height="31" alt=":#1:" title="#1" />
